Abstract
This work aimed to study the effects of different concentration of dried leaves and seeds of Basel as feed additives and an alternative to antibiotics on broiler performance , which have ant inflammatory ,antibacterial and others medical effects. These experiment used ( 60) broilers chicks of one day age type Hubbard, The chicks divided randomly into ( 4) groups and each group of ( 15) chicks. The study showed the effects of different concentration of basil dried leaves given in 0.20% ,and 0.40% as feed additives , comparated with antibiotic addition of oxytetracycline 40 ppm ,. T0, T1 , T2 , T3 , and T0 as control . Parameters of weight of chicks, feed consumption , feed conversion and weight gain . The result showed the chicks fed Basil diets had significantly improved the performance of broilers than those of the control.It would suggested that the supplementation of broiler chicks with diets 2g/ kg – 4 g/ kg of Basil improved production performance and as alternative to the antibiotics as feed additives
